Cloning and characterization of a chitinase from Thermobifida fusca reveals Tfu_0580 as a thermostable and acidic endochitinase
Being capable of hydrolyzing chitin, chitinases have various applications such as production of N-acetylchitooligosaccharides (COSs) and N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc), degrading chitin as a consolidated bioprocessing, and bio-control of fungal phytopathogens. Here, a putative chitinase in Thermobifid...
